It is very bad news for team India as both openers are injured. Abhishek Sharma is likely to rested against Namibia while there is no update about Ishan Kishan.
Ishan Kishan and Abhishek Sharma both are in stupendous form and nightmare for opposition teams, but this injury news make happy to all the teams except India.
Ishan Kishan Injury:
India wicketkeeper-batter Ishan Kishan gets a blow during the team’s practice session on the evening of the T20 World Cup clash against Namibia in New Delhi on Thursday, according to sources. He was struck on the toe by a Jasprit Bumrah’s yorker and briefly left the nets for treatment.
India has to play match against team Namibia on February 12. India will clash against Pakistan on February 15 and this match will be the important one.
Abhishek Sharma Injury:
“When we reached Delhi, he went to the hospital for the examination. He has been discharged today and he is doing well. We have got one more day for the game. Hopefully, we will decide by tomorrow how he feels and we will go with it.” India batter Tilak Varma told reporters on Wednesday.
Abhishek was out for a duck against the USA in the opening game on Saturday in Mumbai and took no further part after that with Sanju Samson replacing him while fielding.
It was earlier reported that he was unwell during that match and his condition worsened after reaching Delhi. With Abhishek Sharma’s participation also doubtful, this comes as a major blow for the Indian team.
While Abhishek has been discharged after being hospitalized with a stomach infection, his participation in the match is likely to be decided tomorrow. Abhishek Sharma likely to get fit ahead of match against Pakistan. But there is no update about Ishan Kishan which creates a tension amongst fans.
Sanju Samson in the replacement of Injured opener:
This duo has proven there worth in recent times. If any of the player gets injured, then we have Sanju Samson in their replacement. Form of Sanju Samson also creates a pressure on team management.
Samson did bat in the nets on Tuesday and spent a lot of time with batting coach Sitanshu Kotak, an indication that the team management is keeping its options ready in case Abhishek fails to regain full fitness.
World Cup is just began and all the important matches are coming and this news of injury can demotivate team India. But there are no major injury and they can recover within few days. Injury is always a big concern for any team when they are playing world cup as they can loose momentum after such injury.
Hope, Both players Ishan Kishan and Abhishek Sharma get fit and join team India very soon and start with a solid knocks and helps India to defend the title of T20 World cup.
